Police told KMBC that multiple shots were fired three times near 72nd and North Wyandotte streets about 1:15 p.m.

"They first came up to the door and asked me if I heard shots, I told them I didn't hear the first round," said neighbor Ashley Palmer. "They went ahead and told me get in the basement for safety, and that's when I heard the second round."

Police said they did not return any gunfire.

Linden West Elementary School, which is nearby, was put on precautionary lockdown. The children were being released from the school by 5 p.m. and moved to Antioch Middle School where parents were going to pick them up. Parents started picking their kids up by 6 p.m.

Police officers were focused on one home west of Linden West Elementary School. A woman who lives next door to that home was evacuated.

No injuries were reported.

A 47-year-old man was taken into custody for questioning. Gladstone police identified him as Darin Krienke.

On Saturday, police announced Krienke is facing a number of charges, including two counts of felony assault on a law enforcement officer. According to a probable cause statement, two officers believed shots were being fired in their direction during the standoff.
